Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Ning Shu had dropped dead. But in a burst of good fortune, she became a task-taker in charge of counterattacking for the pitiful cannon fodders. Thus, Ning Shu, in one world after another, took all kinds of life roles and encountered all kinds of “you’re heartless, you’re ruthless, you’re making trouble for no reason” people. She encountered all sorts of white lotus flowers, green tea b*tches, scheming b*tches, by the batch.

“Does any true beauty still exist in the world?!” Bellowed Ning Shu angrily. “You annoying tr*sh! I’m just here to counterattack, please don’t get in the way of me completing my task.” Transmigration main character, reincarnation main character. There’s only a lazy task-taker, no indestructible main character halo. Ning Shu had no choice, but to painfully gather moral integrity in each of the worlds.

When you imagine Lord God, the Boss of those Systems and Transmigrators, what did you imagine it as?

  • An arrogant and greedy AI who's prone to do the reckless thing and despite its identity as AI is inexplicably s*upid?
  • An aloof being who disdain all creatures, but has no actual works?
  • Or...a stereotyped cold and overbearing being who for some reason succumbed to the power of love when they meet "a transmigrator who's so different and different and different, all in all, it's different from the others" ?
NO.

Well, then, in this novel, the... more>> Lord God, the Boss of systems and transmigrators is actually, a model worker!

More than the Quick Transmigration arcs, more than revenge and s*umbag ab*se in the arcs, what I like about this novel is the detailed background of Systems and Transmigrators! Everything about the Organization that led the phenomenon of Quick Transmigration, the staff, the higher-ups, the BOSS or the Lord God who stood above all Systems and Transmigrator, the boundless background beyond the mere Earth or even Universe. Everything about it is just so well-written! (Though to be able to start touching this area, you need to read until around chapter 800 in RAW, or chapter 1600 by the Group translation here, so be patient, because everything is worth it.)

He has worked more than anyone else, he is busy more than any of his workers.

Taking care of the big Sea of Law filled with millions of universe. Taking care of his cheap subordinates who kept making trouble and trying to rebel. Picking up debris and mending the broken universes. Handling the tricky case in the Sea of Law he was guiding.

Every day, there are millions of workers, millions of universes, millions of systems, who need him to take care of and maintain all the time.

He is not a stereotype cold and distant person because he can communicate with his subordinates either in a serious or unscrupulous manner.

Rather than being unnecessarily ruthless and cruel, he is actually someone with extreme benevolence. Ants or humans, male or female, lowly clan or higher clan, in his eyes only people who is in line with his interest (benefit) and those who are not, it doesn't matter what their identity is.

And of course, as a Lord God, as the Boss of the systems and transmigrators, is there still someone who can impress him and make him chase them and turn him into a domineering silly suitor? No one.

He is the epitome of a Male Protagonist with No Romance.

Yes, he is Uncle Tai, TaiShu, the Great Uncle!

I just really like his character setting and wish there was another novel with him as the Protagonist! <<less

DAMN. IT'S VERY GOOD. BUT HAS ENDED. huhuhuh. I couldn't wait for butterfly curse translation, so I just go to the raw site and ask google to translate them for me. not very clear words, but I got the progress of the story. and DAMN. IT HAS ENDEDDD HUHUHUUHU

... more>>
Spoiler

the ending is ningshu happily become one hand-void creature. livng with earthworm and the whip, fatian and the monkey jinji. mo ming help her in her plane of pearless martial art plane with cheongsam man. zhengqin, ningshu's first system become gecko and his brother, Uncle Taishu, entrust Zhengqin to Ningshu while Taishu died after ward, annihilated by the darkness cause some misunderstanding of the news

the sad thing is uncle last message to his brother, Zhengqin. ""I hope you will take care of youself in the future. meet the nobles and spend the rest of your life warmly"

Uncle always have love and place for his twin brother, no matter how naughty he is. people thought he died and his brother died. but he made many God pattern and ftried many ways to keep his brother alive. at the last, he has to die cause he make the darkness of the void, the purification tool of the void, as his carrier. darkness has to keep spreading. ho he had to be annihilated. I just dislike Li Wen, The Emperor. but he has gone. I hope he die. I feel like my feeling of Uncle Taishu is hate and love. I want him to lose. but he died just like that after he tried so hard to live with his brother. I didn't mind when he died in fight with ningshu. but the way he try to keep Zhengqin alive and the way he tried to live with him and his last word to Zhengqin just break my heart. WHY MUST THERE IS THIS KIND OF HEARTBREAKING ENDINGG... I thank author for his/her hard work. althogh the author made some mistake too. like, cheongsam man had been out from the faction. somehow, he decide to go out again? I think the writer forget that he has been out in several chapted before. and the dog who was the Guardian of reincarnation world, Gouzi. He said he was at first black colour and become very black after eating evil beast. but in the late chapter the author write again that it was white at the beginning. kinda confusing. but alright. you have nearly 4500 chapter after all. maybe author can make the second part, or sequele. cause we don't know about the development story of Xu Wang, Li Wen, A Wan, The Heart, . and don't know whether uncle will be alive again or not. Poor uncle.

Imma stop reading because of the shitty system. I mtld it and that backstabbing mf leaves with all her hard work, embezzled her points and turns out some of the worlds he gave her as missions were considered 'illegitimate' by the origanization so she had to start all over. It makes me so angry. Sometimes I just wanna see the MC beat the crap out of some characters, especially the system and doctor.

one of the best story, already surpassed my lust for release the witches.

a okish female protagonist, she is not good person or bad person. more like chaotic neutral or neutral position. simply helping fulfill the wishes of people who were innocently miserable. the female protagonist will go to a far degree to give them a identity and cut off the evil that stands in their way of life (which means killing them off or torturing to satisfy the person who got hurt by them.) as we progress though multiply chapter... more>> the story view will change from quick transmigration but to more about universe, creating world, act of god and plane wars. you will see less of quick transmigration and most of all result of the quick transmigration.

as for romance.... maybe or maybe not.

im giving it 5/5 cause, this story is kind of rich in story building up character/telling and have lots of different genre. and it gets better and better atleast to 3302 chapter.

i have also tried to find a similar story to this, but I can't find one, so im starting to believe there isn't one. although I feel "release the witches" is kind of similar to this story except romance and male protagonist, but it kinda is short compare to this. <<less

It's a well written story that goes in depth in the arc and takes it's time to build up. The world is not too easy and just the to show how great the MC is. The MC is relatable and hard working. I can't wait to see how the plot progresses. Please continue timely translation and thanks for introducing me to this.

I like this. I got interested enough to MTL it through google translate from the RAWs I found and have been reading them the last day or so. I'm following a couple "transmigrating to cannon fodders via a system and helping them faceslap everyone who has wronged them" but like the translator said, it takes a cynical approach on romance. Don't get your hopes up if you start getting attached to a possible ML haha

It also does something I haven't seen before in these types of stories:

She ends up traveling back to a past world she was in and meets one of the important characters again, in a drastically different world setting though...

[collapse]

Author also follows up with PoVs of characters who's bodies she was in. It's interesting to see how she changed and influenced them and their lives, and to get a glimpse at how the story continues with the original personalities coming back.

Anyways, I don't regret going through the mind-scrambling MTL just to get a peek ahead.

Btw, if anyone else feels these chapters are really short, the RAWs I found on 69shu are longer so the TL might be splitting chapters? Not sure why tho. Will keep reading the TL regardless, since google translate hardly does this story justice haha <<less

The victim blaming and sl*t shaming is Bad at the start and then it cuts out; there's still some "women are x, men are x" views but it's whatever. The skin color thing comes up intermittently; African skin color as ugly is used as an insult once. The nationalism is perfunctory and not fullblown. I wouldn't call the novel homophobic. Also, the plot centers around philosophizing about life and death and human nature A Lot.

If that's within your ability to muscle through: yes, this is an entertaining novel. It made... more>> me laugh basically every chapter and cry a couple times. It has an overarching plot that advances well and wraps up well; power creep is not a concern and the world's systems are explained.

Yes, there is no endgame romance. It's very well avoided.

Before you get stuck with the mtl, the translator does a phenomenal job.

Once you get stuck with the mtl, you will need to be careful about where you source your chapters and potentially use two sources. The qidian and webnovel version have at least two arcs missing. If you Google, someone put up a list of most of the mission arcs (there's like two or three missing but those arcs could also be classified as not mission and they don't matter for purposes of ensuring you didn't skip chapters). I didn't manage to find a single source that didn't have weird chapter numbering and no parts censored, but between two sources no content seemed to be missing.

Like said, you're going to be dredging through some Views. It chills a bit about a quarter through but this is a long ass story. So ask yourself if you want to put up with that before reading far enough you want to know the ending. <<less

It's extremely damn frustrating to read.

Constant r*pe with no consequences and MC doesn't really come to an satisfying conclusion.

I only lasted up to chap 400+ but can't take it anymore. MC feels always weak and can't do anything while the evil ML/FL of each world survive and not really punished

AHH, worth it. Reading 4333 chapters for almost a month, non-stop, completely worth it. Such a great MC with ideologies and actions almost completely in line with how I would presume a normal person's perception of life. Similarly, the world and the way of transmigration into different worlds is brilliant, as well as the visited worlds and characters in it. It is ironically a novel with almost 70% romance yet the MC never got together with anyone. Just awesome. READ IT, NOW!

I have to say, for a novel based around going into different worlds the author really knows how to make each character distinct. Every arc has it's own set of rules and plots, but the side characters are truly fleshed out. Although the basic premise of getting a task to accomplish stays the same, the story doesn't become boring at all. New situations and plots are presented in 13 arcs so far, and they are all well thought out, even the typical male/female leads that she obliterates have different quirks.

There's... more>> also an element of mystery through the whole thing, the further you get into it the more you understand that things aren't what they're supposed to be. Although this is typical of transmigration stories the difference here is that the incidents only occur very rarely, and by that I mean literally only a few times throughout all these chapters. It gives significance to the overarching plot, and gives a bit of a break from the otherwise lengthy mini-series.

I highly recommend reading. <<less

I read this in the Chinese version and it’s basically a twist in the views of the other characters in mess up popular Chinese novels. The translation is numbered differently from the Chinese one to prevent theft. I realize how mess up my three views are after reading this and decide I should stop reading Mary Sue novels with the mess up plots

Honestly, I read the other reviews before reviewing this, and I guess I can see some of their points. But I'm in favour because the MC is actually quite my type. This story is actually all about the perceived cliches in light novels, particularly Chinese light novels. (The really tr*shy, full of one-dimensional villains type.) If you really want to put a genre to it, it's basically: Con. Sis. Tent. Face. Slapping!

And it's also the one story where there's no such ML that follows the FL through her reincarnations. (Or... more>> at least, there isn't one yet except for the twice mentioned "Uncle".) It's seriously amazing how little actual 'romance' there is in this story. I mean, yeah, you get a little disappointed at the lack of romance but it's actually f*cking amazing how the author can depict the difference in treatment when the MC is in an attractive body or a non-attractive one.

Like wow, there is SO MUCH satisfaction in her princess mode than when she's a flat-chested fodder. It's also great that she CAN end up without a partner and still be a successful person.

Her timing for ending the 'jobs' are also really realistic. I mean, once the job is done, get out. That's how it's supposed to be, right? And if you did a shoddy job, then get out quicker. No waiting on side missions, this isn't an MMORPG! You might get a completion bonus, but you'll just end up taking another job later.

Well, this is obviously slated towards female readers, because there's a lot of man hate here. BUT! With the huge number of pro-men stories around, with even those transmigrating females having to rely on male leads to do anything, this is a rare gem that should be savoured. I feel bad for the amount of ball-busting there is (I didn't really like the slap-happy arc) but this story is an overall win in my book. <<less

Really? First arc was not bad at all. I like it a lot. I don't really like novel that begin with strong character. It make the story cliche and less surprise point for reader. Like, we must learn to stand before we could walk, then start running right? And when the character rise from fall, and repay the bully, that make the story interesting. I like this novel because its different. Worth your time reading with real value of life included in my opinion. Because not return back what people's... more>> said or did is my characteristic, I never regret it in my own life because it bring me self satisfaction.

So far, I rate this story 4 stars. The reasons are as follow:

+ Good story line with moderate character development

+ Moderate logic and not so many plot hole. At least, the author try to hide the plot hole.

+ The story shift focus at some point and are now not as enjoyable to see her doing mission. However, it is not that bad as the focus is now more on "how the main char develop". In the past, it is more focus on how she do the mission and you would enjoy the reality slap. Now you enjoy how other view her as she become what you would call a goddess. Well, she still as weak as an ant in the eyes of some other special characters but in the world that she created, she is basically a goddess now.

- The character are forced to be dumb at some point for no reason.

- The transition of the story are forced at some point and are very noticeable, this make the story look dumb if the reader are not forgiving for these mistake.

I recommend this novel if you have read other reincarnate novel, transport to another world novel or some sort of one more chance at life novel because most of the mission she did in this novel is to give the main characters from the novels above a dose of reality. It would give you an extra point at enjoyment.

Many thanks to the translator (s) for translating this into English 🌹🌹🌹. I am really appreciate it.

Some comments here almost make me snort. The heroine was in hospital almost all her life, untill she died, means that she's rarely interact with people outside of her family, hospital workers, and other patients. This caused her to not have as much 'normal life' experience like normal people. You expected her to have as much experience as other novels' main character?

The system is not misogynistic, it's looks down on her since she... more>> was inexperienced (which is normal for newbies). And statistically, female tend to be emotional and dependent compare to male, especially those who are under 40, due to hormones fluctuations at certain times. Their mother instinct makes them easier to manipulated and be used, too. The system doesn't look down on women for being females, it looks down on their weakness that come from being kinder, more emotional and more dependent than males.
She experienced 'real/normal' life through books and television, which actually are more logical than real life since people are illogical - ask any anthropologist and they will tell you. Thus, she is more logical than normal people, to the point of borderline cold hearted. And since entertainment industry almost revolve around romantic love, she thinks of it as something that supposed to bring you happiness and entertainment, not something worth for sacrificing when the loss is greater than the gain, and looks down on those who are head over heel for someone else.

The character growth in this novel is very realistic, hence, very, very slow compared to other novels.

She is misandry at first, made me almost drop this many times. Really, calm your tits, who sh*t in your rice ? Good thing she growed <<less

Chapter 2249 translation..

  • I don't know whose fault, either the author or translator, but the stats has many errors, just need to know which one is high or low
  • I like the protagonist because she prefer to use violence or directly take action rather than have a discussion cause when someone don't want to listen and just insist on their view, it really made me helpless and just want to kill them.
  • I also like her because she wants to learn a lot of knowledge and just live for herself.
  • But, the tasks she went through really made me don't want to get married 😂
  • There still no ml, but I have a few candidates that I like, school doctor (there's no mention of the name yet), Li Wei (Emperor), Qi Yue (Kelp), Zhang Jiasen (hope for love-hate relationship), , HAHAHAH

So, this one is exactly what it says on the tin. The MC is a transmigrator counterattacking for unfortunate characters in tr*shy novels. She's motivated by a pure will to live, which is good because she faces a lot of difficulties along the way. She isn't OP at all- actually, she's pretty weak. She isn't particularly smart, she has a low EQ, and she isn't by any means a nice person. Actually, her first instinct for any problem is to solve it with her fists. Ning Shu is Not Here... more>> To Make Friends.

All of that makes it a lot more satisfying when she accomplishes her goals, since she's absolutely working her hardest every time. All of her successes are accomplished through her own blood, sweat and tears. Also, lots and lots of hidden cameras.

Still, I should warn any prospective readers that the author is 100% a He-Man-Woman-Hater. Like, off the charts chauvinism. I don't think the contents are actually that much more extreme than in other novels of this genre, but there's a cynical edge to the writing that makes everything harsher.

If someone is an antagonist to Ning Shu, they are always a Bad Person (tm) by the author's standards. Those getting their faces slapped deserve it, no matter the context. Neither the MC or the narration have any sympathy or even pity for any other characters, aside from Ning Shu's clients and the rare child character.

Also, scenes with violence, illness, squalor etc. Are always written in excruciating detail. There are entire arcs you'll want to skip if you have a weak stomach, because the author is doing everything in his power to gross you out.

If you can ignore all that, I'd say give it a read. There are a ton of arcs and they're all pretty unique to each other. It's fun watching Ning Shu pulling herself up by her bootstraps inch by inch on her slow journey to become a successful transmigrator. <<less

LOL, never done any reviews for my reads before, this is a first... Starting I love how the MC (Ning Shu) started from a swaddling innocent kid to what she currently is, I agree that she might come of to be a punching bag at first, but there's plenty of reasons for that, like how she had basically lived her whole life in a hospital, there's also what you call adapting, not every thing should be challenged head first, you ought to gouge out the possibilities and as such, Our... more>> MC isn't some kind of super man, she wasn't a professional task-taker too. Very much growing in your environment, she is what she is because of her environment, the kids growing up in our current generation are like so because they've all been cultivated in environments where they get thrown at the internet at an early age, this is what Ning Shus's back story is, she was a patient that lived her whole life locked up in a hospital ward with nowhere to go to but the internet, which led to her having known more beyond the confines of her ward, her view of the world should be stable since there wasn't that much influencing her but the internet, her only educational foundation was her elementary level knowledge at first and it took time before she could finally achieved a higher level of knowledge. The author mocks the usual tropes that authors (specially Chinese authors) make by giving us a different POV lololol They insist on giving us hints that not everything can be answered with love, not everything should be considered with only your view but with also the perspectives of others, they hinted us that love can aslo hurt others, that even if small, our acts maybe hurting or implicating those that are very much undeserving, This work is so fantastic and keen on shaping the readers morals, it's a favorite of mine, and it reminds me every time of how I should also sometimes question my morality •́ ‿, •̀. I know that some peeps doesn't actually have the patience to read this much but I advise that you should read this master piece little by little and carefully take in Ning Shus's Monologues (-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩___-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩) that's all I can say, I think...

You see, the main character is pretty much just a vessel for the author (and at the same time the readers) to retort cliche you usually find in other novel. As result, Ning Shu (mc's) view point would change on every world that she encountered. The only one characteristic that stayed is that she will have to survive by herself without ML that suddenly appear and lift the sky for her.

There's many reviewer that mention that this novel is feminist/anti-feminist. The thing is, the novel have never been about feminism... more>> or what not count as one. Ning Shu view is a mix of old and new value, which tbh, is more similar to how people think and reflect society the author was in. So expect some contradiction on her views. Since it's based on largely mono ethnic China, note that their standard was always based on han people. Example, when talking about skin color- the author probably didn't even consider that other race exist.

The novel is very long and as of 1000+ chapter the story haven't even reached half of the main stoy yet. It's better to think of each world as separate episodic story. <<less

I read the translation, then went to read the raw because I got impatient.

This is definitely rather weird series. It tries to have the MC act logically with no OP cheat despite being tied to a system. However, once she starts getting powers it immediately falls into the OP trap. Like, acupuncture can damage nerves, I guess, but in stories set in modern day somehow the damage caused acupuncture still cannot be detected by modern medicine. I object to this because the acupuncture is described as normal acupuncture. It only... more>> has catastrophic results because the MC is "skilled". It's one thing if modern medicine detects nerve damages and refused to treat it because it's too severe. However, not being able to find anything wrong ia asinine. Normally I would just shrug and move on, but the author makes a point to have the MC act logically with logical "realistic" consequences, so this woowoo nonsense sticks out painfully.

On that note, this author also falls into the typical pithole of underestimating the time and effort it took to gain certain skills. Many transmigration authors do this, and it's very s*upid. I guess this is the one thing that the author isn't actually aware as being s*upid. Ningshu encounters a Heroine who brings modern skills to the "prehistoric" setting, and I don't think she ever accuses this as being absurd. And as such the author happily went and had Ningshu do the same.
Spoiler

Ningshu could easily reproduce multiple lengthy novels off the top of her head to compete against a man whose system cheat allows him to view the entirety of the text in his head. Like, sure, the setting allows for lower standards so she doesn't hace to reproduce the novels perfectly. It's just still too much material to be able to be written out from memory. I am a fan of Harry Potter but I wouldn't be able to reproduce even one Harry Potter book.

She also once became a full fledged lawyer with highly acclaimed reputation in just two years. Knowing that lawsuits can drag on for 5+ years, I don't know what this author thought was doable within just 2 years.

Another issue is the weird juxtaposition between female empowerment and very conservative Chinese ideals. In nearly all the stories that involved the requester escaping a horrid partner, the stories never ended with the body finding a new love. It's a progressive "I need no man" mindset. On the other hand, the MC often berates the targets of her counterattacks for not adhering to Confucian or other Chinese traditional ideals. It's not like both can't coexist, mind you. You can be a strong independent woman who still adheres to conservative ideals, but it's just not held together well in this series.

There were moments where it came across as "Chinese magic is better than Western magic". Ningshu might just be a higher tiered agent by this point, so her skills are above normal. But the Taoist exorcism methods and the Martial Arts technique she had trumps the Western style magic employed by the story universe she entered, so it just looks a bit off in many ways. Also, the "logic" eventually crumbles altogether once the MC powers up enought. She becomes a typical unapologetically horrid overpowered heroine just like the other typical series. At first she seemed to really stick to her morals, like in the early arcs it was repeatedly pointed out that she doesn't want to go overvoard with the counterattack. But eventually it just goes poof, and she juat casually destroys entire towns to feed her own powerbases. Her excuse is that "these people are evil anyway". Again, typical poorly written overpowered Mary Sue trope.

I know this is a webnovel with no editors so I shouldn't expect quality writing. It's just that the MC keeps on lampshading how s*upid "other" transmigration MCs and/or stories are (a lot of the stories being "attacked" in these series are actual existing novels) that the shortcomings in this novel becomes obnoxious and hypocritical. <<less
